What tho Trauhls n.

The trouble with the small girl Il
that she isn't bigger. t
The houble with the large girl Is
that every pair of scales she steps on
give her weigh.
The trouble with the small boy Il
that his big sister never was small
boy herself and so she doesn't know
how small boy feels. II
The trouble with young man In
love Is that he is insane enough Ia
think thata1l the other young men are
making justas big fools OF themselves
about his best girl as he is.
The trouble with the young woman
in love Is that she doesn't know wheth.
err she really loves the young man for
himself alone or for the ca amcls be
brings and the prospect Of u solitaire
diamond to dazzle the other girls.
The trouble with almost all the min.
listers is that they don't hear the other
ministers preach often enough to
know what q really bang up sermon
is.
The trouble with a great many edi.
tors is that they don't think half as
much as they write.
The trouble with great many read.
ers Is that they don't understand how
much easier 1t is to point on. tree In
a magnificent landscape that is ha,r
breadth out of perspective than 1t i. to
paint the magnificent landscape itself.
The trouble with the average wife is
that the husband Is much more prodl.
gal with his protestations Of affection
than he Is with his money, aud that he
doesn't waste much of either unless he
wants button sewed on.
The trouble With the average hue.
hand Is that he knows his wife knows
he isn't so big man as he wants the
world to think he is.

Newspaper Advertising.

Newspaper advertising is now recog-

means for securing for their goods a

Newspaper advertising is a permanent
addition to the reputation of the goods

Newspaper advertising is the most
energetic and vigilant of statesmen,
addressing thousands each day, always
in the advertisers interest, and cease

Mint Matters.

WASHINGTON, February ia COM
munication from the director of the
mint was to-day transmitted to the
House, protesting against the reduction
made in estimates for the mint service
by the appropriation committee. OF
the failure of the committee to provide
for the operation of Carson City mint,
as an assay office, the director having
expressed his views to the committee on
the subject, he has nothing to say; but
with reference to al! other mints he
declares that the estimates were made
for the smallest appropriations con-
sistent with the business i'll each with
out a reduction of salaries. which, he
SAYS, it is we'll known are not such as can
be reasonably reduced, especially under
the circumstances that they are for
services without exception more or less
of an expert character, and are at the
lowest point cons Stent with skill,
efficiency and accuracy and fidelity in
the work, where these are indispen-
sibIe requisites The director takes up
the cause of the insufficient appropria-
ton in detail, beginning with the mint
at Denver, Colorado. Here, he says,
only one-third of the amount estimated
as absolutely requisite for the operation
of the mint on its present basis has
been made, while there is every reason
to suppose the deposits will be largely
in excess during the next year as COM
pared with those in the previous year.
Concerning the assay office at Boise
City, Idaho, the director points to the
fact that its business has more than
doubled during the past year, and says
that the appropriations made by the
committee will be inadequate for the
support of the assay Office without
closing it to depositors toward the close
of the fiscal year. In the case of the
assay Office at Helena, attention is
called to the facts that the deposits
have increased from 1857 900 81, 1876, 900
during the past two years, and that the
committee has reduced the appropria-
ton for its support in the face of a
recommendation for an increase of
compensation to the employees. The
item for wages of Workmen at the New
York assay Office was reduced $500.
The director says that no such reduc-
ton can be made without impairing the
efficiency of the Office in a very impor-
tant field of work; where, indeed, it
would be more extensively felt than in
any other brand of the mint service.

! rpm him In Salt Lake about one week
after be left, since which time he has
neither sent her word nor money. AS
hs4eft her short of funds, her case has
been growing more straitened with
each passing day. She has one small
child left, which is dependent on her
for sustenance, and she has no means
tor providing the same. The matter
should be looked into.
Our salt supply during the coming
spring months is going to be consider
able of difficulty, if all reports are
true. The roads bordering the lake are
now in horrible condition and gradu-
ally getting worse and the matter of
getting salt to the cars is already q
grave difficulty. The warm weather in
the Great Salt Lake Valley, together
with The snow that has fallen, has rem
dered the roads almost impossible,
hence the transfer of salt from the
settling vat to the cars Is slow and
tedious operation. We are informed
that the Ontario laid in supply last
fall in anticipation of this same trouble,
but as the evil is starting in so much
earlier and will in all probability con-
tinue just as long, this supply is liable
TO get pinched very close before traffic
is fully restored. We trust some means
will be found to overcome the trouble
before it resolves itself into a serious
matter and threatens the mining inter
ests of Utah.
A COMPLETE saw-mill outfit has been
put in at the Anchor hoisting works
for the purpose of saving and framing
tjmbers and cutting such wedges. etc,
as may be needed in the mine. This
addition makes these hosting works
among the most complete of that kind
of plants in this vicinity, and goes to
show that the stockholders of that COM
pany have lots of faith in its future.
Their hosting machinery, pumps, etc.,
are of the best and they are able to
handle the body of water in the mine
with ease and sinking is being pushed
as rapidly as possible. No doubt in
the near future this mine will come to
the front in great shape as it is I'M,
doubtedly in the immediate vicinity Of
one OF the great parallel veins crossing
this district, and the company evidently
mean that no effort or means shall be
spared to cut it.
THE total amount of freight received
and forwarded from Park City during
the month Of January was 8,S15, 1913
pounds. Not bad showing for the
dead of winter, when freight traffic is
supposed to be light. We publish the
facts and figures that people abroad
may have some idea of the size and i'm
portance of our town. Park City is a
hustling giant, and the coming season
will see her fame and power scattered
broadcast over the land.
